when you want to start translating contact me by posting a reply here or sending an email to alaa@eglug.org so I can assign you a file or a set of files.

the po files where generated from a master monolithic pot file. there are many repeated strings we don't want to translate these strings multiple times.

each string has a comment stating the source code files the string belongs to, don't translate the string unless the file you're editing coresponds to the first filename in the list of files comment.

if you think you have an unobvious but very good translation for a repeated string by all means translated, this rule is to minimize the work you have to do not to limit you in anyway.

at the end, I will be responsible for rebuilding a translated monolithic file and dealing with any conflicts.

cheers, Alaa
